Like seriously ladies. I've wanted this for so long that I know I will never forgive myself if I don't take this opportunity! But sometimes I just feel like and idiot for even considering this. Now that I actually have a date the nervousness is kicking in and then I sleep on it and remember how bad I want this.

I never ever take risks in my life. Not to say that these are the type of risks I need to be taking... But I've lost so many opportunities from just wanting to play it safe, being scared/nervous etc. I'm all in for this surgery but sometimes I do get overwhelmingly scared for the what if's. I think that is mainly because I don't have family or friends support doing this. It's just me. I have no one to calm my nerves, make me feel comfortable and no one to talk to about it. So I think if something goes wrong everyone will be more mad at me that actually care about me or the situation. You know?

I'm babbling but it's 2am and I can't sleep. Ahaha my mind is literally on a rollercoaster. Then I just read some stories and see you girls and the nervousness goes away. I want to do this and if I talk myself out of this I will never forgive myself.

I'm just thankful to have a sweet, sweet doctor and someone who I feel I can trust.

My date is May 23rd. The worst thing to do is go into nervous, it's like asking for something bad to happen. I hope you really get to relax and remind yourself of all the positives. I'm trying to get myself to do that same lol my boyfriend knows only because we live together but it's not enough. I wish I could talk to my big sister, better yet my mom about it! That's what bothers me the most. Doing something like this without the comfort of my mother and doing it without her knowing. I used to talk to my best friend about it but the last conversation that we had on the topic was me saying I didn't want to do it anymore and she was like thank god! Lol she entertains me cause she knows how bad I want it but really she doesn't want me to have it and she thinks it's dumb. So she's not aware that I'm still going through with it and I'm so invested already so I don't bother talking to her about it. It's crazy

I didn't tell anyone in my family either. My son was the only one that knew I was going into surgery prior and that only because I didn't want him to come home from school that day and be shocked by how I looked, all bent over, with bloody drains coming out, and the home health care nurse that I hired to stay with me for 3 days. I didn't want to deal with the questions and and the jealousy. I scheduled my surgery so soon after my consultation that I didn't really have time to get nervous. I was busy getting prepared. It didn't really sink in until the night before when I washed with the antibacterial soap my doctor prescribed me and the anesthesiologist called me to make sure I didn't eat or drink after 12 and to ask if I had any questions. I suddenly because a crying mess. I was so emotional and asking myself why was I doing this. I had to get up really early to take an Uber to my doctors office. When I made my bed and put my last will and testament on my bed, I broke down again. Leaving the will on the bed may be dramatic to some, but you never know and I wanted to make sure my family knew how my kids wet to be taken care of. Surgery is a very scary thing. Thank God I made it through my surgery and a subsequent surgery to drain and clean out a seroma. I had a couple of additional emotional moments right after surgery when I was in pain and couldn't really do much for myself, but I'm happy I did it. I don't regret my decision at all. The pain I've gone through is worth it to not have to wear spanx and try and suck my stomach in for the rest of my life. Everything will be fine and I'm sure you'll be happy with your decision also. Good luck!

Thank u! I go through this just a 1 or 2 nights of the week. It's good to be aware but I won't let it deter me from my end goal. I'm happy you had a great experience. I know I'll be one to break down as well, I already have. It's mentally straining especially when the people you care about don't know what's going on with u. Thank you for your comment I love when u ladies come on here and truly try to help! Much love doll

I don't want to dissuade you from this procedure and would support you more if it seemed like you were 100% sure of your decision. I pics and you have a great figure, nice lift and protrusion as it is, pretty smooth skin.
You are so young and having the doll figure is recent fad, i would just hate to see you use so much money for something that you absolutely don't need to have a banging busy when you could wait a couple of years and see if it is still that important to you. When I was 20 the ideal butt was a little tushy and being black, and a dancer (contemporary not pole!) I wanted to get surgery to make mine smaller. Over the years since then having a booty has become more and more popular and I am glad to have my original shape. When we are young things take on heightened importance and we have intense emotional feelings about things that will matter in a couple of years. My 15 year old niece just went through first heartbreak and thinks she will never find anyone that great again while you i both know, that by next year she Good what she ever saw in him. You could always put the money in a savings account and if you still feel this way when you graduate from college, give it to yourself as a graduation gift. I have always really wanted larger breasts and i when at the women here and their beautiful implanted breasts i am so tempted but then I go to the chat rooms for women who have been disfigured by the procedure and will never have smooth skin and breasts without lumps and deformities. Then I look at my a cups again and realize they are perfect and round and lifted. Not bad for 45. When I look your body i think that you have a natural gift that you should really embrace, is it worth it to lose what you have to take a risk on a 10% improvement? Whatever you choose, i wish you the best of luck and happiness. And just know are beautiful now. keep focusing on your education! That is where we find out true value as women, especially black women.

Booked Medina for May 23rd!

First of all I'm literally obsessed with Dr. Medina! She just has the cutest bubbly personality and the voice of an angel. I have her on snapchat and she's such a doll. I also stalk her Instagram every second.

Anyway I sent my deposit from my bank account and it finally reached DR today. So she called me to book my date and idk why but it made me happy. Just to talk to her, she's so sweet and nice. She made the call, introduced her self and told me she saw that the money came in, she just has to go pick it up. Then she said she's going to put me on the phone with my assistant to book my date. I appreciated that she took the few minutes to speak to me first though.

Anyway I'm booked! Now I need to save like crazy! I'm thinking I've trying to buy my plane tickets next but I'm wondering if it's too early cause I never know if something may come up and I'll have to switch my date.

Anyway I'm so excited! :)
